Mission

Its goal is to achieve the standardised use of language, namely, the development of all the sociolinguistic functions as a modern culture language (Article 6.3 of the University of Valencia Statutes) and to promote the plurilingualism of the university community.

Vision

It aims to ensure that the academic, administrative, institutional and interpersonal activities of the University are developed normally in Catalan, as the language proper to the University of Valencia. It also intends to contribute to the internationalisation of the University of Valencia by promoting the learning and use of other languages, particularly English, as the language of international communication. It provides linguistic and terminological education and guidance to the university community, and especially to the PDI (teaching and research staff) and PAS (administrative and research staff), to achieve the maximum communicative linguistic competence and the users’ autonomy, both in Catalan and in other languages. Finally, it intends to encourage sociolinguistic attitudes to promote the Catalan language, and to promote its effective and standard use in all areas of university life.

Support to activities that promote Catalan at the University of Valencia, carried out by the University’s bodies or by other entities and groups.
Coordination of initiatives to promote Catalan and plurilingualism with other public Valencian universities and institutions, and with institutions from the Catalan linguistic community.
Constant education, promotion and renewal of the university Linguistic Volunteers.
